GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Model CSMSTRLE is a communications and control platform
designed for use with Modular Controller Series slave modules. The
CSMSTR uses a proprietary high speed serial protocol to communicate,
via backplane connection, with up to 16 slave modules. Through the
same connection, the Master also provides power to the modules.
When powered up, the CSMSTR automatically identifies and
addresses connected slave modules. By storing the configuration
information of all of the modules, the CSMSTR is able to automatically
configure modules if they are replaced.
The Master provides high-speed RS232/422/485 communication ports
and an Ethernet port for connection to PCs, PLCs, and SCADA systems.
An extensive list of master and slave protocol drivers are available to
allow the CSMSTR to share and exchange variable data with external
devices. The 10 Base-T/100 Base-TX Ethernet port can also be used to
connect and share data with other devices at high speeds.
The design of the Modular Controller Series high density packaging
and DIN rail mounting saves time and panel space. The controller snaps
easily onto standard top hat (T) profile DIN rail.

SAFETY SUMMARY
All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear
in the manual or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal
safety and to prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment
connected to it. If equipment is used in a manner not specified by the
manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be
impaired.
Do not use the controller to directly command motors, valves, or other
actuators not equipped with safeguards. To do so can be potentially
4.15 (105.4)
harmful to persons or equipment in the event of a fault to the unit. An
independent and redundant temperature limit indicator with alarm
outputs is strongly recommended.
